The Supreme Court's holding in the landmark case of Roe v. Wade and its subsequent reasoning have been retooled for the last 47 years. A mere day prior to its anniversary, this panel, moderated by Wayne Law's Professor Christopher Lund, will discuss the Constitutional aspects of the decision and the role of State laws regulating reproductive rights. The panel will explore what these laws mean and the long-term effects they have on the continuing validity of Roe v. Wade.

Panelists:

Lara Chelian, Northland Family Planning Centers

Dr. Edward Goldman, University of Michigan Law School and Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology

Merissa Kovach, ACLU of Michigan

Professor Jonathan Weinberg, Wayne Law

This panel is presented by Wayne Law's Women's Law Caucus; If, When, How; the Health Law Society; and American Constitution Society.
